Baby Elephant #2 is knit in the round, using Magic Loop or double pointed needles. The legs, body, head and trunk are all knit on as you work along. The Onesie is removable (and will also fit my Baby Panda and Baby Hippo designs). Baby Elephant #2 is approx. 10 ½” (sitting) and is created using approx. 430 yds. of #3-light wt. (DK wt.) yarn. The Onesie is created using approx. 140 yds of the same weight yarn. This darling elephant sits freely, waiting for a hug from a special friend.
